[Jboss 4.0.1, Jboss IDE, Eclipse 3.1, MyFaces 1.0.9] Ok, this is really strange, I can get the tiles examples to run, no problem in Jboss. My implementation, apparently is somehow inherantly flawed. The only thing I can see is that when Jboss deploys my war file, it doesn't copy out all the contents, just the /WEB-INF/lib.
However, I can still go to non-tiles/non-jsf pages. Any clues as to why this is happening? 17:28:32,569 FATAL [JspTilesViewHandlerImpl] Error reading tiles definitions org.apache.struts.tiles.DefinitionsFactoryException: IO Error while parsing file '/WEB-INF/tiles.xml'.
